When Norway played a major battle for a long time, almost skakavci were heard
Empty stands
When Norway provided a very long-awaited trip to the national team, the environment was special.
There was little in Nicosia that reminds us that Norway played its most important international match in three years.
Rarely, maybe never, the calls of "healthy Norway" sounded so good on the ground.
Rune Tribune sounds a bit of scattered shrieks and sporadic trumpets. Otherwise, they mostly heard the umbrella from the stand.
During the break, the sounds of the locusts were replaced by party music that gave associations to various beaches in the southern regions.
Utilizing points
Behind the stand on which small Norwegian fans stood, one could see the flag of northern Cyprus captured in Turkey. The flag lights from the mountain and is clearly visible from the southern part of the island.
It is a symbol of a lasting, rampant conflict.
But this course has little fighting spirit with the Cypriots. It was the first round to slip.
However, the Norwegian penalty of 10 minutes in the game could be punished as the ball hit the hand of the Cypriot opponent, but the referee decided not to hit.
Mohamed & Moi & # 39; Eliounoussi shot, but Norway made a small home team.
But then, ten minutes before the break, the results were released. Havard Nordtveit played a boxing game on the back of the Cyprus defense, sprint Omar Elabdellaoui hit the ball to the first touch, and Kamara stood and hit the ball in the goal.
Kamara-dabl
Immediately after the break, the result was the second. And again, Kamara was the last on the ball. The corner went through the field before the top appeared on the last post and increased the lead of Norway.
Martin Ødegaard was standing behind a situation that led to the corner. The 19-year-old entered the break for Iver Fossum, who was selected from the start in front of captain Stefan Johansen.
For Ødegaard, it took almost four days. When he entered Slovenia last Friday, it was his first international international match in three years.
"There was not a big soccer game, it did not go all the way to the Norwegian team, but we surely achieved two good goals and a win," said Egil Drillo Olsen in the TV 2 studio.
– Now EM is being realized. This team will become better and this was a deserved victory of the group, said TV 2 expert commentator Brede Hangeland.
In Slovenia, she was cooking at the stadium. Contrast in frames in Nicosia could hardly be higher.
But the result is that Norway has had the longest time in the national team for a long time.
2-0, but it took more. Deputy Alekander Sørloth had two rough recesses.
Especially the last, an open goal immediately before the end, it will probably be remembered for a long time.
Cyprus ended the game with ten men. Valentino Sielis became red shortly after he reduced Ole Selnæs ten minutes before the end.
And just before the referee caught the match, "Moi" was also expelled after taking two yellow cards.
A little joy. But it is not enough to stop the joy of a long-awaited trip to the national team.
